1 95% Lean Ground Beef
1 ½ tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp olive oil
3 medium carrots, spiralized
2 pieces sugar-free bacon, roughly chopped
2 tbsp sage, minced
1 -8oz can of tomato sauce

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
In a large bowl, combine beef, salt, garlic powder, and olive oil. Mix with your hands until fully combined.
Make 1 tsp sized balls with your fingers. Coat your fingers with a little bit of oil for easy rolling. Place minis on the baking sheet until beef is all gone.
Bake for 7-8 minutes, or until fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Sauté bacon until the fat has rendered. Then add sage and sauté until fragrant.
Add spiralized carrots and stir until soft, about 3 minutes.
Add the tomato sauce and mini meatballs. Bring the whole thing to a simmer.
Cook for another 3 minutes until reduced slightly.
Serve alone or with a bit of parmesan. Enjoy!

"Real talk...since my cancer was environmental and not hereditary I am super conscious of what goes into my body, especially protein. Post chemo left my body super low in iron so steak remains in my diet. I found Pre a few months ago and it’s the only meat I buy. Grass-fed, no added hormones and most importantly affordable. Eat better for your body people!"

"Your steaks, especially the sirloin, ribeye, and filet mignon are absolutely delicious. Wasn’t sure how these cuts would taste grilled but they taste just as good if not better than cuts I’ve had a top notch steakhouses."

Mario

"When our son was diagnosed with a rare medical disorder, it meant that we would have to change our diet as a family. Because his metabolism doesn’t function like a typical person’s, we have to be very careful about what we feed him. One of the changes we made was to use more grass-fed and finished beef in our cooking. We decided to give Pre a try, and we are so happy with the quality and taste of the meat. Buying from Pre gives us peace of mind and we feel confident knowing that we are using a product in the top of its class."

Lindsay

"This beef is AMAZING! I'm from Wisconsin so a huge steak lover. This is some of the best beef, I've experienced and I've had beef around the world. It's a must try, and you'll understand what I mean."
